Street & Style: An Urban History of Photography

We’re super-happy to be working with Tate again this year. Tate are giving Flickr members the opportunity to get involved with their new exhibition Street & Studio: An Urban History of Photography, which focuses on international photographic portraiture taken on the street or in the photographer’s studio.

You are all invited to contribute your own urban portrait photography in Tate Modern’s Street or Studio group on Flickr. Photos from the group will be displayed on a screen in Tate Modern and on the exhibition website. In the final weeks of the exhibition, some very fine judges will select 100 photographs to be featured in a Street or Studio photobook (which will be produced by our friends at Blurb). As a thank you, all the photographers chosen will receive a copy of the book, which will also be available for purchase through the Blurb website.

The Street or Studio group will be open for submissions until July 27th, and the exhibition runs until August 31st.

Featured Photographer

“I’ve never struggled so much to capture one picture,” Matthias Dengler explained. “This adventure was the starting point of my photographic career.”

He dreamed of photographing the unique overlook for quite some time. During a six month stint living in Norway he knew he would have few opportunities to reach his destination. He made it part of his morning routine to check weather reports for the perfect day. One morning it was clear. The rain would break for about a day. This was his chance!
